    Someday in the medium-far future, after all the nurembergish trials and hangalangs feel like a distant memory, some producer and streaming service will reboot the West Wing, only it’ll be the Trump West Wing and those future people will get to watch the unbridled escapades and think that’s kinda just the normal way politics happened for us primitive morons.

    Ha! Who am I kidding? Rampant accelerated climate change will ensure nothing of the sort ever happens. “Future people,” what a concept!
